My family and I knew Dean for many years and you could not find a nicer, more willing to help person anywhere. He would come on a momets notice anywhere he was needed and expected nothing in return. He had dreams of traveling around the country in his motorhome after retirement but never was able to go. I will think of Dean in my travels and I know he will be right there with me all the way. He was a good friend and I will miss him dearly but I feel comfort in knowing he is in a better place now.. My condolences go out to Juanita and the entire family at this sad time.
